Choice of Robots reviews and comments
Choice of Robots is one great story.
Unlike other “Choice of Games” I had tried, there are many, many paths and endings to find. You can choose to romance someone or not.
The plot, involving the possible sentience of robots, is great.
Heck, during certain paths, it’s possible to:
1. Conquer Alaska (!)
2. Start a war with the USA.
3. Help or stop a robot uprising.
4. Die (Yes, there are “you died” endings).
If you liked “Choice of Games” other products, you’ll have a great time with Choice of Robots.

As a Fan of Asimov and his Works, I've always had interest in Robots. Especially if they live and are not just any blunt Machines. That's Why I bought the Game. Even if it is completely in English, my Knowledge is sufficient to understand the Content of the Story. Here you are left to how to design your Robot. Every decision affects the Robot and the Environment. As Sheldon Cooper said: "I play this Game with the Powerful Calculator of Humanity, my Imagination: 3" It's just a welcome change to play a Text-Adventure game than to always just have to see any Graphics or nevend Noises. It's like a Book just with your History. At the end you are touched by the Story (or not if you do something wrong ^ ^). Conclusion: Play with one of the best text adventure I've played. Still, you could play it in other Languages except just English. :/

Anyone who likes to be able to tell their own Story and see how their own Decisions influence the whole Course of the Plot will love Choice of Robots.
This interactive Novel not only allows the Player to go his own Way through the Plot, but also trains important Skills such as learning from his own Mistakes or thinking in advance. The Playing Time for one Run I would estimate to be about three Hours.
To whom the Fact that Choice of Robots is text-based and comes across without any Graphics is sour, it should be said that it pleasantly surprises me how little that bothers you as a Player. It is Precisely this Gap that stimulates the Player's Imagination and motivates him to visually imagine the Plot.
The Only thing I really have to criticise about this Game is that it is only available in English; Those who are not powerful in English are not necessarily going to Buy.
All in all, However, Choice of Robots proves very impressively that text-based games can still be Fun In this day And age

What shall I say? Somehow I had promised myself more. I have these "adventure books" as a Child (.. " Read "Your own Adventure, so to speak) loved. I had some of those, and so I thought the "Choice" Games here on Steam are similar. ... They are too, but .. I'll come back to that. First of all the good Sides: Pros:-good Writing style-an extensive Story-an interesting background-the Game remembers "Values," so decisions add up to be able to trigger special Events later But The bad Sides Ostaying with me, unfortunately ... I expected much more: Cons:-Boring; History doesn't grab me at all-"empty"; The game book in the meantime seems to me like a scientific Reading, it lacks a "real emotional Depth"-imho-moral Aspect; The game book book wants to be socially critical at times ... Baking, but not in (m) a Computer Game;)
Implementation: 8/10 Story (Art): 6/10 Content: 4/10 Total: 6/10 .. Unfortunately, it still cannot recommend it.
Tl; dr Anyone who wants to read a moral Sci-Fi story with a little more "technical Aspects" * is well served with this Game-for everyone else: Leave it, don't worth it!
